Scope and Content

The series includes materials providing publicity about the firm and its partners
and produced for public distribution; articles mentioning Brown Brothers Harriman
or its employees' and partners' activities inside and outside the firm; and two copies
of "The Fifty-Niner," published during World World II for employees in the armed services
to keep them apprised of activities and news in the New York office.

The materials produced by the firm marked its 150th and 175th anniversaries. Because
it remains a partnership rather than a corporation with public reporting requirements,
the firm has not consistently produced annual reports or other corporate publications
for public consumption.

The items in this series appear to have been collected from various sources for use
by the Historical Files, but were not included with other promotional materials found
in Subseries I.A. Chronological Files or Subseries I.B. Subject Files.

The three copies of the
New York Times containing society columnist Charlotte Curtis's article on the 150th anniversary
party are extremely brittle and difficult to handle. Reproductions of the article
are available in the "1968" folders of Subseries I.A. Chronological Files, and in
the "Sesquicentennial" folders of Subseries I.B. Subject Files.

The 1968 newspaper ads were found with the annual reports in Series II. Annual Reports
and Statements of Condition and were moved here for consistency.
